My site has been pushed back in the google search results.

[m1mi.dan0s]

Okay, so I'm hoping that someone can give me an explanation or a fix for this!

For one of my sites the most popular keyword usually had it popping up at the end of the first page on Google search results. Since yesterday, suddenly, it appears on the 5th! It's costing me a buttload of traffic and I have never experienced anything like this with other sites.

I checked Google Blacklist and I didn't receive any notice from Google that I've been penalized for something, or whatever. I'm mentioning that because I read somewhere that someone received notice when Google decided to push their site back in the search results.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Do you have the Google Webmaster Tools installed?

[m1mi.dan0s]

Yes! And I can't find anything unusual...

I really don't understand how this could so suddenly have changed. My site is only a month old, but was doing really well... It's Pagerank is still 0, but that's just cause it's new...

Can anyone else come up with some sort of explanation and is there anything I can do?

You need to check into Google Webmaster Tools in what page your keywords are appearing exactly. If you check by yourself, the results can be different when you're logged, for example.

Okay, so what I see under "Search Phrases" < Which is a loose translation from Dutch, so in English it might be called different.

Yesterday and today my website hasn't shown up in any search results. So does that mean that my site has been banned or something?

I checked on onlinevalley and it says my site does not appear to be banned...

Whats the site Content btw? there Could be many of reasons behind it

[m1mi.dan0s]

Well, it is a warez-site, but seriously... Google is spoiled with it... So why pick on mine, it's only a month old...

My site is only a month old, but was doing really well...

There's your answer. One month old site is still 'dancing' in google SERPS.
It's called google dance, since your site is new, google is determining, and testing your site on lots of things, and placing you in SERPS. Just continue what you were doing..

This is an example of how new sites traffic looks like, when it's under the google dance:



This is dance for highly competitive keyword from position 5 on first page, to somewhere nowhere near first 10 pages...


So, what's Google Dance:

Google Dance - The Index Update of the Google Search Engine
The name "Google Dance" has often been used to describe the index update of the Google search engine. Google's index update occurred on average once per month. During an index update there was significant movement in search results and Google showed new backward links for pages. However, in mid-2003 Google started to update it's index continuously. It appears that, still, there has to be an update of the complete index once in a while and during this time new backward links are shown. But, because of the continuous update, the effects on search results seem to be rather insignificant.

Wow... seriously!? I have seen my traffic swinging, but this extreme I haven't experienced that... Well, in that case... Awesome man! You just took my worries away!

Cool avatar by the way!

It is a pretty cool dance though, kind of like a cha-cha-cha...

In the mean time, try getting few HQ backlinks to your pages, so, when google 'release' you, you might bump even higher where you previously were.
